Great stone monuments but where
Is the memory of what made them
The words but not what they meant
To the raised voices who spoke them
What they were relinquishing
Of the light so we could harvest
More and more of the darkness
Or that's how they seem to have seen it
At least that's this morning's speculation
For why the monuments were demolished
Or buried deep in deserts and lakes
Or removed to invisible places
Unprobed by science our ailing god
Now we've lost sight of their grail
